Adjust Cutterhead/Feed Roller Height Offset
The infeed/outfeed rollers pull the workpiece
through the planer. To ensure optimal
feeding/cutting performance, it is important to
ensure the height offsets between the
cutterhead and the feed rollers are correct.
The following diagram shows the height offset
between the cutterhead and various
components inside the headstock of the planer.
The feed rollers and chip breaker are installed
BELOW
the lowest point of cutterhead.
*Diagram not drawn to scale
The height of the rollers and the chip breaker
has been pre-calibrated in the factory and
should not need further adjustments.
In case if adjustments are needed, you will need
a dial indicator with a sturdy stand. If a dial
indicator is not available, it is possible to make
the adjustments with a home-made gauge
block and a set of feeler gauges.
Clean the table and the rollers to remove any
accumulations before making adjustments.
Method 1: Using a Dial Indicator
1.
Remove all tools from the planer.
2.
Turn on the planer, wait until it reaches full
speed, then shift the feed rate control knob
to 0 FPM (Neutral) position.
3.
Turn off planer.
Disconnect planer from
power source!!
4.
Remove the belt cover so you can rotate
the cutterhead with the drive belt.
5.
Raise the headstock, fit the dial indicator
right below the cutterhead. Rotate the
cutterhead and use the dial indicator to
locate its lowest point. Using a flat bottom
tip for the dial indicator can make this task
easier.
6.
Zero the dial indicator. Use this as the
reference point for measuring the offset
